I want to break free
I want to break free
I want to break free from your lies
You're so self satisfied I dont need you
I've got to break free
God knows God knows I want to break free

I've fallen in love
I've fallen in love for the first time
And this time I know its for real
I've fallen in love yeah
God knows God knows I've fallen in love

It's strange but its true
I can't get over the way you love me like you do
But I have to be sure
When I walk out that door
Oh how I want to be free baby
Oh how I want to be free
Oh how I want to break free

But life still goes on
I cant get used to living without living without
Living without you by my side
I don't want to live alone hey
God knows got to make it on my own
So baby cant you see
I've got to break free

I've got to break free
I want to break free yeah

I want I want I want I want to break free....

(Jerry Leiber - Mike Stoller)
There's no joy in my heart,
only sorrow
And I'm sad
as a man can be
I sit alone in the darkness
of my lonely room
And this room
is a prison to me

I look at window
and what to I see
I see a bird
way up in the tree
I want to be free free
Free - ee - ee - ee
I want to be free
like the bird in the tree

What good are my eyes,
they can't see you
And my arms,
they can't hold so tight
I have two lips
that are yearning,
but they're no good to me
Cause I know I can't kiss you tonight

I look at window
and what to I see
I see a bird
way up in the tree
I want to be free free
Free - ee - ee - ee
I want to be free
like the bird in the tree
I want to be free
like the bird in the tree

I'm bored
don't want to go to school
don't want to be nobody's fool
want to be me
want to be me
don't want to be sweet and neat
don't want someone living my life for me
want to be free
I'm going to turn this world inside out
I'm going to turn suburbia upside down
I'm going to walk the streets, scream and shout
I'm going to crawl through the alleyways, being very loud
don't want to be told what to wear
As long as you're warm who cares
want to be me
want to be me
So what if I dye my hair
I've still got a brain up there
And I'm going to be me
I'm going to be free
I'm going to turn this world inside out
I'm going to turn suburbia upside down
I'm going to walk the streets, scream and shout
I'm going to crawl through the alleyways, being very loud
I'm going to turn this world inside out
I'm going to turn suburbia upside down
I'm going to walk the streets, scream and shout
I'm going to crawl through the alleyways, being very loud
Tear down the wallpaper
Turf out the cat
Tear up the carpet
We've got rid of that
Blow up the TV
Blow up the car
Without these things
You don't know where you are

Pull down the abbatoirs
And all that's obscene
Everything in life
Should be totally free
We should live and let live
And all live our dreams

I'm going to turn this world inside out
I'm going to turn suburbia upside down
Gonna pull my hair, scream and shout
I'm going to crawl through the alleyways, being very loud
I'm going to turn this world inside out
I'm going to turn suburbia upside down
Gonna pull my hair, scream and shout
I'm going to crawl through the alleyways, being very loud
I'm gonna be free
I'm gonna be free
